Background and approach
Andrea pays attention to patterns like attachment issues, codependency, and feelings of emptiness that can get in the way of daily life. Andrea blends several therapeutic approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses mindfulness and acceptance strategies to reduce reactivity and build tolerance for difficult feelings.
Cognitive behavioral tools are used to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. A client-centered stance keeps conversations grounded in the person’s own goals and values. Sessions are practical and collaborative.

She supports clients in building routines and problem-solving steps they can try between appointments.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Andrea commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. ACT teaches values-based action and practical ways to tolerate hard emotions, which can be useful for anxiety, anger, and life transitions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and the behaviors that follow. CBT includes clear exercises and homework assignments that work well in remote formats, such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and activity scheduling.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then try strategies that fit the person’s needs. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so methods match practical life demands.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief ongoing contact between appointments. These options make it easier to use therapy tools consistently while fitting work, family, and daily routines.
